I've been using the same Avatar since the Watchmenfirst appeared. My "Watchmen" Thread may still be the longest thread ever to grace MacWorld Forums.

That's my iPhone/Media BagThat's one of the only "dolls" I've ever owned...I got it for X-Mas the year before last, because Tedalways said I looked just like "Belinda Bump when we first met... nearly 40 years ago...This is what I wanted this past X-Mas...

...but alas, it just wasn't in 'Da STARS.

not sure if you mean the sharing tidbits of personal (ancient) history...or Vinyl Figurine Memorabilia...?

...however plunging on..

Just the other day I was waylaid in a waiting areaby some sweet grandmotherly type who broke the ice into a conversation by commenting how "NICE" it was that I had a large SMILIEFACE on my Media Bag... ...elaborating upon "How Necessary it was for one tomaintain a positive outlook as they go through life."

I choose not to wreak her illusion by telling herthat I wear the Comedian's blood-spattered Smilie Button as the very embodiment of Practiced Cynicism.

...A Government Assassin called "The Comedian"...klkAlthough he maintained that; "Life was a Joke!"...he never once said it was funny...

I missed out on the underground scene. I was in a small town, where you could only get the two big companies. It was quite some time before I ever saw anything that didn't say Marvel, DC, oh and Archie on it.

i dint miss a thing

born in 49, i was 20 in 1969and living alternately betweenEast & West Greenwich Village,working in the Nite Owl Poster Shop on West 4th St, hanging inthe Coffee Shops flanking ourshop on either side. Learned todance in The Stonewall Inn and @ the Electric Circus. Lived inthe Digger's Free Store in theBowery, & sold my drugs in thefoyer of the Filmore East.

Graduated first in my class inIllustration from N.S.F.I.A.working for the publishers ofMacWorld on Park Ave. Had myown forum in MacWorld Forums.

You sure as hell didn't. What a wonderful ride you had during the late 60's & early 70's. Thanks for sharing. I at least made it to Woodstock.

The only place in NYC I hung out in was Studio 54. One of my cousins was a childhood friend of Steve Rubel who was one of the owners if I remember correctly.The most radical thing I did (besides smoking PCP laced gunja) was getting my nose pierced at the age of 15 (1965). My daughter was always proud of the fact that I was ahead of the times & trend by doing that. What she didn't know at that time was I didn't get my ears were pierced until the age of 15. Had ear piercings done at a doctors office & I used a self piercer for my nose.

Oh, I almost forgot. While I was a freshman at A&T State University, Jesse Jackson was a senior. As far as I know or remember, we never crossed paths. I swung with a different crowd than he did.

WOW! You sum cool Chicky!

You got to do a whole buncha'stuff I never did(including have kids! ) I never got to Studio 54, ...and I've always wanted my nose pierced on the right side, so I could wear one of those Face-Chains that they wear in India!

I never got to Woodstock...in retrospect it was adumb decision on my part...Abbey Hoffman and his Yippy cohorts had dragged allthe kids in our commune to both the Washington &Chicago riots and gotten them pretty busted up...

Given the choice.. I elected to stay behind with theshotgun, and protect the 13-15 yo runaways left behind. "I'll stay & hold-down the fort... HAVE FUN!"(We'd had a problem the week before.. bunch of foolsbroke in and pushed the kids around.. snuft-out a cigar on the cheek of a sweet-faced young man... ((I HATE BULLIES...I STILL DO! )) )

ah, well
